INTRO

Bm C Am7 G

VERSE 1

G
As you walked away
A strand of hair
       Am7
Came undone
                         C
And was reflected in the sun
                   G
And everything was orange

VERSE 2

As you disappeared
The shadow of death
           Am7
Began to run
                          C
And was reflected in the sun
                     G
And everything was orange

PRE-CHORUS

Bm          C      Bm
They have begun to celebrate
    C               Bm
The tidal wave they think is great
    C            D
The ever-beating heart it wasn't

CHORUS

Bm          C
They have begun
Bm          C
They have begun
Bm          C        Am            G
They have begun to assassinate the sun

VERSE 3

G
As you died in the night
A million stars
            Am7
Formed into one
                    C
And became another sun
                    G
And everything was orange

VERSE 4

And now this horrible machine
Churns out pain 
            Am7
Instead of love
                          C
And it looks just like the sun
                   G
And everything is orange

CHORUS

They have begun
They have begun
They have begun to assassinate the sun
